John
Newland, 1784-1861, moved over from Madison county in 1847.
The farm he purchased was probably part of the old Whitley plantation. He, his
wife Celia Hoy Newland, and her sister, Frances Hoy were originally buried in
this family plot. They were moved in 1885 to Buffalo Springs by a son.
After John moved to Lincoln several of his
children also moved nearby. The Anderson C Newland buried in the Clark-NewlandCemetery by CedarCreekLake was a son.
At sometime, 1940's or 1950's, a Newland descendant, Gobelene Harrod, did a
survey of this cemetery, at least for Newland connections.I donít know Gobelene, I got the information from a second party and so
for as I know the survey was not published.But I do have a lot of the data. Gobelene
is daughter of Justus Gobel Harrod, 1900-1978 + Allie Mae Cummins, 1899-1988.Allie Mae was daughter of Fleming F Cummins, 1875-1961 + Sarah Elizabeth
Anderson, 1877-1962 (NOTE: Allie Mae sister was Eliza Anderson Cummins, wife of
long time Lincoln County Attorney, Pat Davis Rankin).Sarah Elizabeth was daughter of John Anderson, 1838-1917 + Virginia
Newland, 1848-1890.Virginia was daughter of
Abraham Hoy Newland, 1808-1857 + Sarah Jones, 1812-1877.Abraham Hoy was oldest child of John and Celia Hoy Newland.Gobeleneís second marriage was to Kenneth D Singleton, 1925-1987, so
far as I know Gobelene is living in Franklin or FayetteCounties.

These
photos came from a camper in 2002 that worked with Frank Horton.The two photos of Richard T Newland and Philadelphia Deboe Newland had
